guys remember when I said I was finally going to start reading SVSSS? Well I did and I finished and now the post novel blues are making me wanna cry! I can't even begin to put into words how much I love Luo Binghe as a character. Not only did he immediately invoke these feelings of nurturing in me but also the NEED to love and protect him at all cost!!! I get the hype now!!! I GET IT!!!

Man I miss the DAO specialization methods, I hope they bring back that type of thing in DA4. I wanna become a blood mage by making a deal with a demon. I wanna become a reaver by joining up with a dragon cult. I wanna become a duelist by meeting a pirate in a random brothel.
Even the less wild ones are really good! Getting close enough to your companions that they teach you their unique skills? I love it!
It’s just so much more interesting and engaging than doing random fetch quests or being purely mechanical

The fate of A Modest Renaissance
My latest art post was hinting at it but by this point I should just say it outright: A Modest Renaissance will no longer be an MCYT AU. More info under the cut.
Wait, it's ending?
No. If I stopped making content for AMR I think my brain would boil over.
What does this mean?
Characters and the story have changed. Some, like the one I posted today, underwent minor design changes. Other unposted characters got a major rehaul, and with them storyline alterations. In short, this story will now be populated by original characters.
Why?
I talked a little about it before on my twitter, but I got burnt out on MCYT content. I love the community and the people I've met in the fandom but I'd lost interest in most of the CCs and their stories by Doomsday, and by then had only been watching Techno's streams anyway. He was the reason I got back into MCYT with his Skywars videos. When he left, it made sense that I would too.
But I had a whole story plotted out for this blog. Since I hadn't been watching other CCs/drawing heavily on their plots in the first place, as I continued to work on AMR the characters started to resemble their origins less and less. So eventually I was faced with the choice to:
keep AMR a MCYT AU and rarely post art, squirreling away the "real" AMR in drafts, or
convert all of AMR into original content and (psychologically) give myself total creative freedom, but risk losing my audience.
The choice was clear, so I decided I should do what I want.
What about content already posted on this blog? Is it still canon?
A lot of characterization and plot stayed the same through the transition, especially regarding posted content. Think of it like a beta version of the story.
Now what?
I guess introductions are in order for my new(ish) characters. You've already seen Loume by this point, but I'll post new characters as I finish up their designs.
Whether you choose to stick around is up to you. Thank you for everything, and I hope you enjoy the story.

People will really say "Jonathan Sims is a good guy!" or "Jonathan Sims is a bad person!" as if a prominent message of his character arc wasn't that no matter who you are, what you do, or how you behave your actions can cause harm or good without intention, and baselessly assigning morals to people who aren't deliberately causing harm is pointless because our view of them is more about how they affect us than how they actually are.
For better or worse, everyone is just a person. We're all both not at fault and entirely to blame.
